As I see it, you have added the ContentSetting control on the wrong place. Please add the control under <mastersettigs> and remove existing TextSetting for Summary from there. You have added the control under <DetailSettings> node and this is the reason for the error you are getting.

I now have the facility to select content or summary and choose how many words and whether to strip html (so far so good). When I click [I'm Done], however, the changes are not applied and when I then click to edit the settings have not been saved

1. Find and remove the existing TextSetting for Summary from the ControlDesigner template of NewsView control. Each presentation mode has its own TextSettings, so do the changes for the mode you want to change.

2. Put the ContentSetting control in the same place where the default Summary TextSetting was.

I suggest that you should go to the first post of this thread and read it again. You can also create a custom control that and use String.Substring method to returns sub string from the main string of the content field. The content you see is IContent.Content object
